We set sail from the local tourist pier to travel across the wide Ushuaia Bay, enjoying a unique panoramic view of the city's coastline, its historic buildings like the old prison, and the imposing natural framework provided by Mounts Olivia and Cinco Hermanos. We will navigate southwest to approach Isla de los Lobos (Sea Lion Island), where we will observe sea lions in their permanent habitat, and then Isla de los Pájaros (Bird Island), a privileged area to spot Magellanic and Imperial cormorants. The tour reaches the iconic Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse before heading back through the Paso Chico, offering postcard views of Mount Martial and its glacier. ✅ Includes: Catamaran navigation ticket. Professional bilingual tour guide on board. ❌ Does not include: Transfer from the hotel to the port (passengers must make their own way to the pier). Port tax (Mandatory to pay before boarding).
